...because it's football.

...because ol' Blair is back on the East Coast with a much more forgiving start time to work on pith.

...because Will Rogers never met Y.A. Title.

I was watching the Bucks with the footyball game in background. 

Footyball was kinda boring but Hopkins with an incredible TD catch. Man he'd sure look good in G&G with Davante opposite him. 

Normally there aren't comments that give me pause but that was hilariously a "WTF" moment.

I was waiting for my dead grandmother to pop up somewhere with a dish of stale mints and some mixed nuts referring to the Brazil nuts as "n***** toes".

LMAO, my grandma said the same thing as she brought out the wooden nut bowl with the island in the middle that held the nut cracker and the picks.

When we were kids and the rosters were 40 men, we used to say "The Vikings have 39 guys without Cox"   

When the vikings had Cox and Sieman, which one got them to the Love Boat?

I seriously have no idea if this is racist or just stupid.

Can't it be both? 

I don't know what's more surprising, black QB's or foreigners playing college basketball. How is that even possible? 

If my Sicilian grandmother had spoken English....she'd have been right there with you guys.

Wait.....apparently she was black!

Andrew Cuomo got in trouble for saying the same thing

What I find amazing is that it's apparently OK to say he was called a wop, but not that he was called a nigger.

Stop being amazed and read a history book.

Whenever i hear someone order “EYE-"Talian” bread or dressing, I  ask them, you mean from “EYE-taly”?

And then to myself, I mutter, “You ignorant POS”
